1995 Bacon & Eggs Mallrats is about as simple a set of trading cards as you can get. It’s all of 90 cards. At a surface level, it’s not particularly interesting outside of recapping the film. But there are a few things going on with the checklist that make it interesting.
At a glance, Mallrats is a bit of a curious choice for a card set. But as an early precursor to geek culture, it fits, even if the movie is more into comics. But collectors share a common bond, so it’s not too far away.
The set is primarily a recap of the film’s plot. However, there are separate sections for both the main characters and the actors themselves. For those looking for first trading card appearances, the big ones here include Ben Affleck, Jason Lee, Michael Rooker and, of course, Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes. Stan Lee also appears in the set.
Drawing from the comics fandom of the film, the final 18 cards have Mallrats-themed artwork under the banner Comic Trust: The Art of Mallrats. Participating artists include Mike Allred, J. Scott Campbell, Jae Lee and Joe Quesada.
Images aren’t the clearest and there isn’t much in the way of modern embellishments.
Despite releasing at a time when they were established and popular, the 1995 Bacon & Eggs Mallrats trading cards checklist has no inserts.
That hasn’t hindered prices, though. This is a tough set to find in any form today. Boxes, sets and singles have largely dried up. Combine that with the following Mallrats still has and the all-star cast and, all things considered, values are strong for such a simple set.
